http://www.theslurredword.net/2015_03_01_archive.html

A Literate Drinking Club. No Meeting Tomorrow - Please Don't Cry. I tear at my eyes, self flagellate (not the good kind), weeping. Show's cancelled tomorrow, boys. We had a few no go's and the reading wasn't cooked yet. So we'll reschedule. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). TV-less or TV-little Bars in Chicagoland. Clark Street Ale House (TVs easily ignored). Delilah's (few TVs - no sports). The Duke of Perth. The Sun Also Rises. Moneyball. The Art of Winning an Unfair Game.

The Slurred Word: A Taste of The Franklin Room

http://www.theslurredword.net/2015/02/a-taste-of-franklin-room.html

A Literate Drinking Club. A Taste of The Franklin Room. A gentle reminder that we are meeting this Friday six o'clock in the evening at The Franklin Room. A new venue! It's in a basement or garden level. Maybe it will feel like going into Cheers. I get to be Cliff. Again the reading is that short (It's short so fucking read it, Andy. You're not that busy and they have $1000 bean bag chairs in your office to facilitate this kind of intellectual pondering) piece on the nature of taste. Here it is again:.

The Slurred Word: January 2015

http://www.theslurredword.net/2015_01_01_archive.html

A Literate Drinking Club. The Slurred Word on Flipboard. When Reader went dark, I started flipping. Recently, I started a TSW themed Flipboard magazine. I try to compile along the lines of "the literate drinking club" motif. Always careful to snatch any steampunk space elevator articles that relate to the coming singularity and whether or not unions are a relevant solution to America's labor issues. Also, booze.usually whiskey flavored booze. Check it:. Links to this post. A Question of Taste. For shame,...

The Slurred Word: February 2015

http://www.theslurredword.net/2015_02_01_archive.html

A Literate Drinking Club. A Guy on a Couch. I've mentioned how much I hate February. Detest is too nice a word. This time of year, besieged by snow, ice and cold, all my demons come out to poke me in the eye. It's nightmarish and I want it to end. I've found a bit of solace in listening to Marc Maron's podcast, WTF. Here's a link to the episode with Louis CK. It's fantastic: http:/ www.wtfpod.com/podcast/. Episodes/louis c.k. from 2010. I'm just guy on a couch in winter. Check out the Flipboard magazine&...

Lakeview

http://www.homescoutrealty.com/wrigleyville

It goes without saying that if you’re a serious Cubs fan (or serious about taunting Cubs fans), you’re going to be checking out the Wrigleyville neighborhood, which is home to Wrigley Field. Lakeview housing consists of a lot of low-rise buildings, but the buildings tend to get taller as you get closer to the lake. In this area a studio apartment goes for approximately $1,050 and a one bedroom for about $1,300. Two bedroom apartments are roughly $1,900 while three bedrooms are around $2,5500. Seven bucks...

Location: Chicago, IL. Date: May 4 - May 8, 2011. We'll be visiting the Chicago, IL area this year for HSI XI. Wednesday, May 4, 2011. All of the players arrived to the airport at approximately the same time. We went from the airport directly to the house that we were staying at in Wrigleyville. The place we were staying was a nice three bedroom basement apartment. We unloaded our things and then headed directly to Deerfield Golf Club. May 5, 2011. After the round we headed back to the house and then wal...

AMV chronicles #35: A Total Waste of 6min 35sec | Cutfilm Tovent

https://cutfilmtovent.wordpress.com/2015/05/31/amv-chronicles-35-a-total-waste-of-6min-35sec

AMV chronicles #35: A Total Waste of 6min 35sec. May 31, 2015 in AMV. So I actually heard this song playing in a pub. Last night and took it as a sign, as good as excuse as any to post this AMV, which I guess was sort of. Back in its time or something. Nothing to say about this one that won’t take the fun out of it for anyone who’s never seen it. Maybe “fun” is a relative term here. If you love Big Big Truck’s “ Failed Experiments in Video Editing. 8221; and are craving another classic pre-Youtube. You a...

http://highwaytoale.blogspot.com/2010/09/sticky-fat-from-half-acre.html

Highway to Ale Features. Beer Reviews and Ratings. Saturday, September 4, 2010. Sticky Fat from Half Acre. I'm enjoying these first few days of autumn-like weather and the Labor Day weekend with a growler of Sticky Fat from Half Acre Brewing Company. In Chicago. It was just released and will probably have a very limited availability (in growlers only at the brewery). Read their tale of the Sticky Fat Bear on the Half Acre blog here.

The Slurred Word: A Question of Taste

http://www.theslurredword.net/2015/01/a-question-of-taste.html

A Literate Drinking Club. A Question of Taste. Due to my Burns Night revelries, my last post was not as clear as you've come to expect. The reading for Feb 13 is the link I sent, the lecture on taste by Clement Greenberg:. Http:/ www.sharecom.ca/greenberg/taste.html. I found it here in a piece by a favorite culture columnist at Slate, Troy Patterson:.
